Murcielago is hard to describe. It's got sex, gore, violence, lesbians, and more. Somehow or other, Murcielago manages to mesh all these things together to make a pretty crazy but entertaining read.

Story 7/10
So far, the story has been interesting, with new developments occurring with each case. Although the story is mostly divided up into "murder cases" there are plenty of strings that connect and foreshadow plot points to come. Not much has happened yet, but it's been a good setup and entertaining so far.

Art 8/10
For the most part, the art has been smooth and rather straightforward. What really stands out however are the character designs. ... Each character is well-drawn and well-designed.

Character 9/10
The characters of Murcielago are what makes this manga stand out. The two main characters are as you would expect, both insane, but in their own unique way. The enemies that our main characters face are, of course, also insane, although not many of them can match our MC's. In contrast to the main cast and many of their enemies, are the police force. The level-headedness of the police officers and their way of handling of the same problems that the main cast face are interesting in their own right.

Enjoyment 9/10
All of the fights and crazy driving sequences were lots of fun to read. A lot of the comedy was focused on the MC's girl-eating tendencies, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Overall 8/10
Interesting characters, good art, lots of action and comedy with a ton of insanity mixed into it. There are better manga out there, but this is something worth reading.

What do you have when you two cops, one is a lesbian with huge boobs and totally crazy, the other a derpy spazz who's also pretty crazy and also a lesbian. You have this wonderful Manga!

Story 9/10: The story is set up basically like a police case, random pyscho or freak causing trouble, and our heroines have to kill them. I find this set up interesting, we always get to what kind of messed up fucker(s) they are up against and it's always interesting. Despite all the brutality, blood, and occasional (hot) lesbian sex scene, this manga is surprisingly really funny.

Art 9/10: The artwork ... is very well done. The gore is drawn well, the characters are drawn well, and the scenery is very well drawn. Best perhaps are the insane expressions some characters make, they look great, you can feel the crazy.

Characters 10/10: All the characters, from our crazy leads, to the psychos they chase, and the levelheaded cops who have to keep it all under control, are all interesting. I especially love Kuroko, she is insane, a huge pervert, utterly immoral, and her random gag of pulling things out of her cleavage is hilarious.

Enjoyment 10/10: Weather it's the depravity of the pyscho killers, the lesbian sex and pervy jokes, or just the humor in general, you will be entertained. This manga is a fun read, and enjoyable ride.

Overall 9/10: A great manga, I always look forward to updates just to see what sort of madness is up next. If there was more yuri I'd probably give it a perfect score but it's a good amount of yuri nonetheless. Highly recommend this manga.

This manga is the Mount Rushmore of internal-misogyny. It depicts women as perverts, manipulators, victims, crazies, and cold-blooded killers. Worst of all, it’s mostly toward their gender. I stopped reading after chapter 22. An event occurred, which made my jaw drop. It ruined a female-only space that seemed like a lesbian utopia.

Without spoiling too much, there’s much female-on-female crime that happens in this manga. There’s no “sisterhood” at all. The female x female crime isn’t depicted realistically either. I understand that women are catty towards each other, but they are rarely, if ever, homicidal. They fill this manga with Yuri scenes, so it wants us ... to believe that the women are in love with each other, but then chapters later, women are butchering each other. I am a Yuri fan. I love females, and I love it when females get along and love each other. This manga allured me with its Yuri-Ness. However, I was left shocked and disappointed. I would not recommend to any wholesome Yuri fan out there.

If you are a yuri fan, you love it when girls are romantic. There is no room for homicidal maniacs in yuri works, especially when women commit a crime against their fellow women. If you do not mind the crime/horror aspect, then this would be the manga.
